01. The Call

[Instrumental]

02. By Blood & Right

I heard your screams the other night
Voices in the wind, asking me to fight
You said the king is going mad
And I should be the one he relive him from his head

Today I'll answer the call
Marching into battle, marching into war

Can I erase the guilt, if I have to slay my own king?
It'll be worth the pain, cause I will be the ruler of these lands!

Fight! and I shall prove I am the one
Rightful bearer of the crown
Who´ll lead us into victory
By blood & right I am the king
I will crush my enemies
Those who defy me I will kill
And lead us into victory
By blood & right I am the king

As the night comes near
See him shake in fear
Madness in his head
He knows he soon'll be dead
Now the time has come
I'll prove I am the one
Finally I win, now I am the king!

I'll pay a visit in his sleep
Into his throat, my dagger will cut deep
And all of you will bow for me
Cause by blood & right I truly am your king

03. The Way Of The Crown

This medieval madness
Will bring our kingdom to decay
The demons of the cross
Will never go away
The legacy of Vortigern
Are now seeing the end of it´s days
The lady of the lake
Is screaming out her pain

She takes a look out into the fields
It is a sight of tragedy merlin has betrayed,
Uther has been warned
Vortigern has lost the winter war

The battle goes on, forever and ever
Raise your steel! into the sky
The battle goes on, forever and ever
Fate will decide the way of the crown

She takes a look out into the fields again
It is a sight of living hell
Avalon´s moving further into the mist
It´s getting forced down by Christian fists

04. Under The Spell

Deceived by my own mind, how could I be so blind?
It crept to deep within, I couldn't do anything
Someone inside of me, laughs at my misery
Yet there is more to come, my end has just begun
This is not the first time, I have madness by my side
So many times before, canґt take this anymore!
I leave it deep within, cause I am weak I cannot win
Yet there is more to come, my end has just begun

Screaming louder!
No one seems to hear
Running faster!
Thus no one is there

I'm under spell of madness again
I close my eyes but still haunts my brain
Under the spell of madness again
I scream to escape from the voices
That burns in my head

05. Code: Broken Dagger

[Instrumental]

06. Traces Of Pain

When my so called life comes to an end
I am condemned to burn (in hell)
Heaven denied my soul will fry
God will laugh and i´ll (cry)
Traces of pain in my mind
I am leaving behind
When st: peter looks upon my file
He´ll sentence me to eternal (fire)
Heaven denied my soul will fry
God will laugh and i´ll (cry)

Why is it so hard to forget all the pain and regret
When I hardly recall times of laughter and joy
Hatred confuses my mind leaving love far behind
But if I start loving pain, can I trick my own brain?
I am reaching out of madness wonders into unknown
But is it called sanity when your heart turns to stone?
I can´t feel anymore, my world is slowly getting cold
A desire to kill crawls up my spine, I can´t hold back I feel alive

Leaving behind, the pain deep inside
Start to deny, the tears in my eyes
As I have to kill to survive

Why is love so hard to express when you´re afraid of loneliness?
When it is easy to hate if it all is to late
This paradox confuses my head i´ll be better of dead
But if I wear somebody else I might break out from this shell
I am reaching out of madness, but I am living a dream
And no matter how I twist and turn this can´t be called sanity

Is this the way it was meant to be?
Is this the path of my destiny?
Can I turn back or is it all to late?
What can I do, to change my fate?

07. Chains Of Insanity

Hey, hear me now, hear my words
Every day I feel down I wish to die
There is no use, Iґll only loose
Canґt take this shit no more I wish to die
Are you satisfied, each night I cry?
You left me all alone, I wish to die
If I fight this war, will there be more?
The point of no return, I wish to die

Cause I am drifting further away from how it use to be
Can no longer see through the fog I am in
Drifting further away from how it use to be
Canґt break out from the chains of insanity

Madness approaching, my inner door is closing
I canґt believe what is happening to me

I can feel the madness taking over
Every minute every day
I feel the storm its getting closer
Thats why I cannot stay
Leaving this world behind me
As final sacrifice
Let the dagger cut my veins until I finally
Close my eyes

Hey, Who are you to see through
My inner thoughts are pure, I wish to die
You canґt explain, feel my pain
Your help will do no good, I wish to die
I cry out in despair, but youґre not there
You left me all alone, I wish to die
I have lost control of my soul
The point of no return I wish to die

Thereґs no use to fight this war, I will drown in tears of pain
Thereґs no use to end it now, I hope you feel my misery

08. Path Of Nevermore

Today her world turned black...
Frozen hanging by her neck
This is the tale of a broken heart
Where all went wrong right from the start

Most of them left without saying a word
Didnt know how much that hurts
Now sheґs lying broken on the floor
Canґt stop crying her heart is torn

I canґt believe what I just heard
Is this the end for our precious girl?
Sad but true, the facts of this world
The fairest of roses withers first

Most of them left without saying a word
Didnt know how much more she deserved
Now she is lying speechless on the floor
Couldn't handle the pain anymore

From the sealing sheґs walking
The path of nevermore...

09. Rise Of The Machines

I am a loaner afraid of my own destiny
Got no home address and hidden identity
I can't accept the fate I've been given
That's why I am choosing this way of living
Yet they come once again to erase me once and for all
Stronger and faster this time we're bound to fall
We're victims of our own technologies
We're all responsible for this disaster

Mechanized metallurgy, artificial artillery
Coming to erase our kind, nuclear war our skin will fry

Now when the world goes down
The rise of machines has begun
Its much late turn beck
When skynet strikes
The time to surrender is out
and we must face nuclear war
As the world goes down
The rise of machines has begun
Its much late turn beck
When skynet strikes
We must face our judgment day
We see our species go down in decay

The eyes of the world cries tears of misery
Panic as our judgment dayґs closing in
I'll not sit back await the arrival
I'll stand up and fight for our survival
But the time is running out, we are doomed to die
If we donґt pull the plug of skynet our skin will fry
Robert Brewster is launching skynet upon us all
End of mankind as we know it, we'll fall
